Parents and invasion of privacy are age-old allies, whether it’s tracking a cell phone location, reading a diary, or recruiting a sibling for the dirty work. When it comes to the Addams family (as chronicled in Tim Burton’s new Netflix series Wednesday), the perceived key to getting the skinny is having a right-hand… well, hand to take care of things.
In a new exclusive clip from the series, Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) is unfortunately not so easily fooled by Thing, the Addams’ disembodied, dextrous servant. As Wednesday studies to the mournful tune of the aptly haunting “La Llorona,” she realizes a visitor is shuffling around under her covers—she captures Thing as its digits desperately grasp to the iron-wrought posts of her dorm bed.
